Isfanbul Theme Park

Isfanbul Theme Park, originally opened as Vialand in May 2013, is Turkey's first world-class large-scale theme park and entertainment complex. Located in the Eyüpsultan district of Istanbul, the park covers a total area of approximately 600,000 square meters on the site of a former stone quarry. The park gives an impressive variety of rides, including the high-speed "Nefeskesen" roller coaster, which accelerates to 110 kilometers per hour in just three seconds. In addition to adrenaline-pumping attractions, the complex features thematic zones like "Once Upon a Time in Istanbul," reflecting the city's historical urban landscape. An integrated shopping mall with over 200 stores and a large performance center complete the experience for both domestic and international visitors. The architecture blends modern entertainment elements with traditional Turkish and Ottoman motifs. Since its inception, Isfanbul has become a central landmark for tourism and family entertainment in the metropolis of Istanbul.
